On a Sunday morning there was already a bit of a line. After waiting for around 20 min, we were…read moreseated. Service was a bit on the slower side since there were so many people. It's definitely styled as a family friendly restaurant. - Yukgaejang Noodles (5/5): the noodles were nice and chewy, and the soup had a beefy aroma and it paired well with the spice. imo not too spicy - Steamed Beef and Chive Dumplings, (4/5): surprisingly good with a light wrapper. I could barely taste the beef tho, but the other fillings were good that's all from me ty for reading :^)

We got the dumplings half shrimp, half beef. Good size. I probably do prefer Chinese dumplings with…read morefull shrimp. The hot sesame broth with noodles had a very deep and rich flavor The spicy rice with beef have a good amount of space. Both noodle dishes had a very good amount of noodles and toppings. The noodles themselves were so fresh and bouncy. We even had leftovers the next day and they still tasted really good.

The naengmyun cold noodles hit the spot. You order and get a number and then pick up your food. The yuksu broth is full of umami and a great compliment to the meal. Great for groups who want to eat different things. Would recommend!

Kim Ga Meon Ok is a fantastic, relatively affordable Korean spot and definitely a local favorite!…read moreThey have two locations (one in Fort Lee and this one in Palisades Park), but I usually visit the Pal Park location right across from King Sauna on Commercial Ave. The setup here is entirely self-service. You order at the front and pick up your food when it's ready. It's actually a really convenient system, and since there is no table service, there's no expectation to leave a gratuity. The food itself is consistently good. The parking lot is very, very small and shared with the cafe next door, so parking can be a squeeze. Because it's so popular, it gets very busy during prime dining hours. Even when I've ordered takeout, there can sometimes be a decent wait to get your food so I recommend order online or over the phone ahead. They do charge a little extra if you pay with a credit card to cover the fees. If you visit during the summer months, you absolutely have to try the Naeng Myeon (cold noodle soup) or the Bibim Naeng Myeon (spicy cold noodles). They really hit the spot and are incredibly refreshing. Highly recommend!

***this was at their other location…read more Even though the venue was small and there's limited seating, the food was so good. Best kimchi I've had in a while as well! The service was consistent, only once did we have to ask for refills for water. Food: we ordered the half and half raw marinated crab, bibimbap, abalone congee and fried oysters. Raw crabs: marinated and seasoned perfectly. We aren't a spicy loving family, but this was perfect amount for us that we could handle the spice. Our lips and mouths burned, but the good tingle, not the fire breathing 911 burn. lol Fried oysters: well battered and fried, nicely aromatic Abalone congee: perfectly textured and the abalone meat and taste was present. This helped offset the spiciness of the crabs. Bibimbap: not your average clay pot type, this was on a plate and with lots of green vegetables. Also delicious! The Bon chon was different and excellent. Variety of different vegetables, pickled and fermented. We enjoyed them all. FYI: there is a small parking lot as well

2nd time coming here. Small restaurant with a few tables. Thankfully when we came (Saturday…read moreevening), there was one table available and it was the same table as last time! Ordered three things: 1) marinated crabs, small size (5/5). Always a must-get here. 2) ddukbaegi bulgogi (4.5/5) - Thinly sliced prime marinated beef ribeye casserole with rice cake and glass noodle and mushroom served in a sizzling hot pot. Really flavorful and so good to have on a cold day. 3) ahjae ppyo jjim (4.5/5) - Braised prime beef meat bones in soy reduction with carrots, radish, dates, chestnut, rice cake and glass noodles. We got non-spicy. It came in a HUGE bowl. Definitely meant to be shared with a group. Took leftovers home and it was still yummy the next day mixed with knife-cut noodles I had at home.

My favorite place for Soondae Gook (Korean vermicelli blood sausage soup). Nothing beats their…read moreclean and honest soup that'll leave you sweating by the end of the meal. Perfect for the coldest days! At first glance, the restaurant's exterior and interior may not be the most alluring and modern, but the family-owned business is simply what it is. No flashing lights - just straight up sharing of good, healthy, homey meals. They're mostly known for their Soondae Gook ($15) with the original soondae, but I prefer their Soondae Gook with their veggie soondae (white colored soondae; not necessarily vegetarian) b/c I'm not comfortable with the aspect of "blood sausage." You'll have to specifically request all veggie soondae's in your Soondae Gook. If you're not up for Soondae Gook, their Seollung Tang (deep boiled bone broth soup w briskets and noodles; $15) is also good. Again, nothing too crazy, but homey... much of which reminds me of what my mom or grandma would cook at home. Enjoy!

Use to frequent this place often but their prices had gone way up and was different each time we…read morecame so we stopped going. There has been a lot of competition in the neighborhood and they have since started to lower their prices. The beef soup is now back to $10 which is a really good deal. The blood sausage (sundae) and beef bone soup (soonlongtong) are my go to and they are really delicious.

Good place for Korean Chinese place, but little pricy. We order 2 noodle and 1 sweet & sour pork,…read moreand it costs about $60. The noodle sauce is very heavy (I liked it), and the noodle texture is perfect. The portion of sweet & sour pork is small (I usually get 3-4 people portion, but this one is good for 2 people). The service is great (very friendly), and they give you hot tea for free. The restaurant is very spacious, and good for group of people. They do have private parking lot. - Noodle with special black bean sauce (4/5): very heavy and deep sauce - Noodle with spicy black bean sauce (4/5): light sauce & moderate spicy - Sweet & sour pork (3/5): small portion, and average taste

This visit was all about sweet and sour pork, and while it wasn't the best I've ever had, they…read moredelivered something respectable and more than acceptable. The dining room was empty when we rocked up on a weekday late afternoon, and it was nice to sit at a table by the window for a street view. The staff was quick and efficient, and we got a super heavy tea pot of hot barley tea in no time. Food came out without delay. I love how theirs comes with loads of veggies, even as I question the use of green beans which is a first for me (to see them in sweet and sour pork). And while it was distracting and would rather have the dish without the beans, the star of the fish, the pork, was just right and we gobbled it up. I hope they stay open for a long time.

Honestly this has become my go to spot for a quick, reliable Korean meal with friends or family in…read moreFort Lee. It's one of those places where you know exactly what you're getting every time. I know I can expect solid food, fast service, and a menu that works for pretty much everyone in a group. I do like that they have a button on the table to call for service and that's a quick turnaround time once you press that call button. They have all the usual Korean comfort dishes, and most of the staples here are consistently good. The hot stone bibimbap is always satisfying, the fried tempura comes out fresh and crunchy, and the yukgaejang has a good rich spicy broth that actually tastes homemade instead of watered down. One thing I always order for the table is the bulgogi patty. That is definitely one of their sleeper dishes. I did try the galbi jjim recently for the first time and unfortunately wouldn't recommend it. Especially compared to some other Korean spots nearby in Fort Lee, it just lacked flavor and didn't really hit the way a good galbi jjim should. Sub tier. That said, this place shines more as an everyday dependable spot rather than somewhere for one specific dish. Portions are fair, banchan is meh (they offer less and less each time I go), but it's easy to come here with a group because there's something for everyone.

I went in here to have a nice pleasant lunch as a treat. Literally the whole menu has the noodle…read moreon the side so I don't understand why the waiter had a problem with putting the noodle on the side for the hot noodle. What is so hard about just putting hot soup in a bowl and some noodles in another bowl? Well, the waiter had an attitude and said that could not be done. It's the cold noodles on the side and the hot noodles had to be in the soup. I like my noodles al dente so I prefer them on the side. He wasn't going to have it. Kept on arguing with me, so I asked to speak to someone else. Much discussion went on about this and I just decided I didn't want to be annoyed anymore. The customer is always right. I went a few doors down to a Cajun place and the people next to me asked for their sauce on the side. The waiter there said ok. People want their food how they want it. Just understand this when you serve food. If you look at my photos for my previous visit, you can see they put the noodles on the side. What's so difficult about that? It wasn't like this place had a line out the door either at lunch time so they cannot afford to drive away customers.

My friend took me to Te Min Quan to try their summer mul naengmyeon, which is similar to Korean mul…read morenaengmyeon but also very different. I've been coming here for years and didn't even know they had this dish. When it arrived, it was huge. The noodles used for this cold dish are the same ones they serve with their jajangmyeon and jjamppong, so they had a nice chewy texture. The broth was sweet and sour. I can't exactly put my finger on the flavor, but it was refreshing and delicious. The dish also came with seasoned beef, shrimp, eggs, and veggies. I couldn't finish all the broth, but I really enjoyed it. I do want to mention that it's pretty pricey at a little over $25. Overall, I enjoyed this summer dish, and if you're looking to try something different, I would recommend giving it a try.

The food was actually delicious, I will admit that no problem, but costs way too much. Must have been some sort of mistake.
